Who we are
About the farm
We are a mental health charity and social enterprise that has supported adults in their mental health recovery through horticultural activity in Cumbria since 2004. On our six-acre (approx. 2.4 ha) vegetable farm at Low Sizergh near Kendal we grow organically in beds and polytunnels, with the work done by the people we support. Our harvest goes into the Crop Share veg box scheme with over 100 members (annual membership at £42.50 a month, at least 37 shares a year, weekly from June to December), collected at the farm, and we also sell wholesale. We have further sites at Egremont (West Cumbria) and at Tebay Services, where we launched a therapeutic tree nursery in 2025.

Write a review
How we check reviews: the reviewer's email address is verified with a confirmation email, and one address can review a farm only once. We do not check whether the reviewer has bought from the farm. Every review is checked by a person before it appears; reviews that are offensive, contain personal data or are not about the farm are not published. The “Producer” label is given only when the email address belongs to a FarmAtlas farm. The farm can reply once.
